Liberation Magazine (1956–77) was a monthly magazine of the New Left, compared with Dissent and Studies on the Left.[1]
Liberation was founded, published, and edited by David Dellinger and A. J. Muste from 1956 to 1975 out of New York. Muste brought funding from the War Resisters League.[2][3]
For Bayard Rustin, another of the magazine's editors, the magazine was a major commitment of time and energy, raising money and meeting every week with Muste.[4] He wrote to Martin Luther King, Jr.,[5] who later wrote for the magazine. The June 1963 issue contained the first full publication of King's "Letter from Birmingham Jail" and the first version with that title. Muste and Rustin were Quakers.
